“…Today's topic is Etruscan civilization. He has drawn on the Perseus Digital Library [5] for Etruscan inscriptions to illustrate the Etruscan language and for images of Etruscan pottery. His own annotations connect translations of the inscriptions with passages on Etruscan religion in the class's reading assignment.…”

Abstract. This paper charts a research agenda on systems-oriented issues in digital libraries. It focuses on the most central and generic system issues, including system architecture, user-level functionality, and the overall operational environment. With respect to userlevel functionality, in particular, it abstracts the overall information lifecycle in digital libraries to five major stages and identifies key research problems that require solution in each stage. Finally, it recommends an explicit set of activities that would help achieve the research goals outlined and identifies several dimensions along which progress of the digital library field can be evaluated.

We report on experience gained from our ongoing multi-year project to produce an Electronic Variorum Edition of Cervantes' Don Quixote de la Mancha. Initially designed around a custom database representation, the project's evolution has lead to the adoption of a TEI-based format for information interchange among the project's major components. We discuss the mechanics of this approach and its benefits.

“…Digital archive systems have evolved by combining several information processing techniques such as text search, comparison, and concordance. For example, those published on the Web for academic  Graduate School of Decision Science and Technology, Tokyo Institute of Technology purposes include the Perseus Project collection of Greek and Latin literature 1 (Crane et al 2003), archived Buddhism-related material 2 (Matsuda, Iyanaga, and Nagasaki 2011), and the CCEL 3 Christian literature collection. In addition, commercial digital archive programs are available such as BibleWorks, 4 which combine texts with dictionaries, related texts, and search functions.…”

To support the automatic semantic analysis of texts in the humanities, it is not sufficient to analyze words and evaluate word pairs, because it is necessary to process larger units, such as phrases, sentences, and paragraphs. This study proposes the introduction of intratextuality into a digital archive system. In the future, this method will be developed as the basis for semantic analysis of larger units. Classical literary structures that are used frequently in the Old and New Testaments were digitized as a case study. A literary structure data format for a relational database was also implemented. The literary structures of 39 books in the Old Testament and 27 books in the New Testament were digitized. The total number of digitized literary structures was 1,507 and the elements of these structures comprised 7,715 pairs. These data were stored in a Java-based relational database system and a web-based viewer program for rhetorical structures was implemented as a JSP servlet. This web-based program will be combined with an existing digital archive system that can manage intertextuality data. The Java-based relational database system and the JSP servlet will facilitate numerical analyses of the intertextuality and intratextuality of digital archive systems of classical texts, thus making it much easier to conduct scientific analyses of the meanings of texts.
